Nice stuff as always!!!

Can you elaborate on the bases/stands?  I've tried antennas, wooden skewers, dowels, and a couple others and just haven't found a good base yet.

The bases are commercially available, but tbh we bought about 100 of them 10 years ago, and we still haven’t used them all up.
Sorry I can’t help you more.
